K. Sparks Continues “The Trilogy Chapter 2: The Demonstration” (Mixtape Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 08/30/10 | Filed under Downloads, Mixtapes, K. Sparks

Ok, so I was going to do this genius intro where I compared unbelievably productive NY emcee K. Sparks continuing mixtape trilogy series with the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, but I can't think of a single way in which the man's musical work resembles a hobbit's quest to stop evil, so we're going to have to ditch the creative approach and just do this factual style.

K. Sparks Performs Some “Magic” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 08/18/10 | Filed under Downloads, K. Sparks

Now that XV's doing the major label dance, I think we can officially declare frequent RefinedHype contributor K. Sparks the leading "wait, why the f**k isnt this dude signed?" candidate. In fact, he says so himself on his new track "Magic": "I can body rappers, so Interscope to Warner Bros., I suggest you warn your brothers." True indeed. Listen and download...

K. Sparks & J.D. Are Just “Kickin’ Rhymes” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 07/21/10 | Filed under Downloads, K. Sparks

For most emcees dropping a 50 track mixtape would completely clean out their catalog, but K. Sparks is not most emcees. The eminently prodigious NY emcee hasn't even paused to catch his breath after dropping "The Trilogy: Chapter 1", getting right back at it with the first leak from "Chapter 2", the old school infused "Kickin' Rhymes".

As anyone who follows K. Sparks knows, Sparks puts out new music like BP spills oil. In all of his numerous travels Sparks has of course had occasion to work with more than a couple other dope rappers, and so he's decided to package all his best collab work into one dope package with "The Trilogy Chapter 1: The Collabs".

K. Sparks Flips Classic Tribe Called Quest With “Jazz (We Got)” (Listen & Dowload)

Posted by Nathan S. on 06/16/10 | Filed under Downloads, Freestyles, K. Sparks

It’s no exaggeration to say that A Tribe Called Quest’s classic album Low End Theory is one of the biggest reasons I’ve devoted my professional life to hip-hop, so I’m instantly suspicious of anyone who dares touch their music…except consummate DJBooth-approved emcee K. Sparks. Listen and download...

Posted by Nathan S. on 05/17/10 | Filed under Top Stories, Download, Remixes, K. Sparks, ArtOfficial, Beyond Belief, Jabee, Gripz

After the disappointment that was the latest edition of "Beamer, Benz or Bentley", I thought it was only right to give remixes a good name again with K. Sparks' new "Blue Swing (Remix)". Here, the almost impossibly productive emcee Sparks recruits fellow RefinedHype favorites Beyond Belief and Logics (of ArtOfficial fame), in addition to newcomers Gripz and Jabee.

ArtOfficial & K. Sparks Deliver “The Payback” (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 03/12/10 | Filed under Downloads, K. Sparks, ArtOfficial

ArtOfficial, the live hip-hop crew that first took us on a tour of their native Miami, is gearing up to drop their new album "The Payback" and what better way to build some well-deserved hype than by dropping the project's title track? Featuring RefinedHype favorite K. Sparks, who here spits yet another missile precise flow, 'The Payback" is first and foremost a musical beat; goddamn that bass line is sick. Listen and download...

K. Sparks & Chris Young Know They’re “Watching Me” (Listen & Download, Bonus Contest)

Posted by Nathan S. on 03/05/10 | Filed under Downloads, K. Sparks

Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you, and just because Brooklyn emcee K. Sparks thinks everyone's watching him doesn't mean he's crazy. In fact, given his prodigious lyrical output, it's pretty damn reasonable. On his latest single "Watching Me", off his "A Day in the Life" album, Sparks is joined by fellow microphone fiend Chris Young for an ode to the highlights (and low lights) of life for an aspiring rap star.

K. Sparks, Sean Price and Julius Francis “Keep it Movin’ (Listen & Download)

Posted by Nathan S. on 02/18/10 | Filed under Downloads, K. Sparks, Sean Price, Julius Francis

I'm not going to lie to you. When I saw that the lyrically prodigious K. Sparks had a new track called "Keep Movin" with the grittiest of gritty rappers Sean Price I almost wet myself (hey, I said almost). Produced by G.C., who puts together an appropriately kinetic beat, and featuring some subdued vocals from Julius Francis on the hook, "Keep Moving" is first and foremost a lyrical adventure that includes yet another precise flow from Sparks and references to crack and stolen iTunes cards from Sean Price ("P!").

Posted by Nathan S. on 12/14/09 | Filed under Downloads, Mixtapes, K. Sparks

For weeks now K. Sparks and production partner Pajozo have been feeding us appetizers off their upcoming "Soul Food" album, but today they're finally delivered the main course. An album capable both of delighting your musical taste buds and nourishing your hip-hop soul, "Soul Food" is a four-course meal of an album in a land full of disposable, fast food music.
